England, Germany and Austria Believed To
Be Working In Harmony
Special to the Indianapolis Journal
LONDON, June 1.-THE Austrian and German
ambassadors called upon Lord Salisbury at the
Foreign Office, this afternoon and the three
were coseted together for some time. The pur-
pose result of the interview has not been
definitely mads public, but the meeting is be-
lieved to portend the cohesion of Germany and
Austria with England in opposing the aggres-
sions of Russia on the frontier of Afghanistsn,
and highlands JOINT action with Austria in
restraining thwartng Russia's Ill
concealed intention of occupying Bull
garia The repeated warnings of the
English press during the last few days have not
been necessary to apprise Lord Salisbury of the
fact that both the Bulgarian and Afghan ques-
tions have assumed phases rendering their
immediate settlement by arbitration, force of
arms, or alliance sufficiently strong induce
Russia to substitute discretion for territorial
ambition. absolutely imperative The position
of Russia the Afghan frontier after two
years of careful quiet and unrestricted prepara-
tion. is much stronger than that of England in
any part of the Ameer's dominions. and the first
stages of actual could not fail to
esult dsastrously to English arms
and firmly establish Russia in possession of the
most strongly fortified positions in Afghanistan
1t will, therefore, that an alliance of
sufficient power to the Czar into relin-
gushing his purpose of administering the estate
of the Ameer in advance of the latter's demise
is Of great Importance to England, at least
cntil she get ready to contest Russias
claims individually with equal chances of sue
On the other hand the appointment OF
pro Russian Ministry in Servia has deprived
Austria of any hope of King Milanis assistance
in checking Russias pretensons in the
Balkans. and made England's assistance
on the eve of the election of Prince of Bull
garia, to whose accession to the throne Russia
will undou btedly object, douby welcome. AS
for Germany's share in tho benefits of the
alliance she has everything to gain and moth
ing to lose By passvely interfering to prevent
Russia precipitatng war in Afehanstan and
lending her influence to n bloodless settlement
of the Bulgarian question, she acquires
active allies in suppressnc the warlike ebulli-
tions of France until the arrival of She time
when it shall seem advantageous to provoke or
declare war against her implacable enemy.

would be difficult to give an adequate description
of the panic and the tunult which ensued. The
whole OF the spectators jumped to their feet. In
